Yonomori is a strikingly beautiful college student who harbors a quiet, secret affection for his underclassman, Hinohara. Though the younger man often carries himself with an arrogant swagger, there are fleeting moments when he reaches out to touch Yonomori with astonishing tenderness, as though handling something fragile and precious. These rare gestures of warmth fill Yonomori’s days with an agonizing yet intoxicating sense of hope, leaving him suspended between longing and uncertainty. However, that delicate balance shatters on an otherwise ordinary day when Yonomori discovers a devastating truth: Hinohara already has someone he likes. Plagued by doubt and consumed by jealousy, Yonomori struggles with his hesitation but ultimately decides he cannot simply walk away. Driven by a desperate need for clarity, he approaches his underclassman to demand the identity of this mysterious rival. Yet Hinohara does not offer his secrets freely. Instead, he proposes a startling condition—in exchange for revealing the name of the person he desires, Yonomori must agree to become something entirely unexpected, shifting the boundaries of their relationship forever.
